Increase in production yield from limited arable land
Farmers are facing problems meeting the ever-increasing demand for agricultural products from the limited arable land. Hybrid crop varieties have significantly solved the issue of yield optimization; however, these crops continue to require enzymes to sustain attacks from pests such as insects and rodents. Enzymes are utilized in fertilizer formulations, pesticides, and insecticides and have specific actions on specific soil nutrients. Some of these enzymes even act as growth enhancers of crops, thus increasing the production of agricultural products within a short span of time. This property of enzymes has acted as a stimulant for farmers facing problems of yield optimization from their limited arable land.
Growing industrialization and urbanization continue to diminish the available arable or cultivable land. The total land available for agriculture is decreasing continuously. Cities and industries are expanding as more people are acquiring land to fulfill their household and industrial needs. According to FAO, the arable land per person has decreased from 0.38 hectares in 1970 to 0.23 hectares in 2000, with a projected decline to 0.15 hectares per person by 2050.
Stringent international regulations related to biological products
There is a lack of clear regulatory guidelines for the use of agricultural enzymes. The European Union (EU) legislation that is being put into effect does not consider enzymes produced through microbial strains. This ambiguity poses a problem to enzyme manufacturers and end-use product industries. For instance, there is a ban on the utilization of genetically modified organisms (GMO) in food and other products in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), but the U.S. government allows their utilization to a certain extent. Hence, such international regulations restrain the manufacturers from entering the market.
Phosphatases segment dominated the agricultural enzymes market in 2016
The phosphatases segment accounted for the largest share in 2016. Phosphatases are a broad group of enzymes that are capable of catalyzing hydrolysis of esters and anhydrides of phosphoric acid and play a vital role in soil systems. It has the ability to solubilize soil mineral elements.
Fertility segment accounted for the largest market share in 2016
The fertility products segment is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period followed by growth enhancing products. Soil fertility products containing soil enzymes such as proteases, dehydrogenases, ureases, sulfatases, and amylases are important in catalyzing several vital reactions necessary for the life processes of micro-organisms in soils and the stabilization of soil structure.
